Critical period for activity-dependent synapse elimination in developing cerebellum.
Synapse elimination is considered to be the final step in neural circuit formation, by causing refinement of redundant connections formed at earlier developmental stages. The developmental loss of climbing fiber innervation from cerebellar Purkinje cells is an example of such synapse elimination. It has been suggested that NMDA receptors are involved in the elimination of climbing fiber synapse...
متن کاملcritical period effects in foreign language learning:the influence of maturational state on the acquisition of reading,writing, and grammar in english as a foreign language
since the 1960s the age effects on learning both first and second language have been explored by many linguists and applied linguists (e.g lennerberg, 1967; schachter, 1996; long, 1990) and the existence of critical period for language acquisition was found to be a common ground of all these studies. in spite of some common findings, some issues about the impacts of age on acquiring a second or...
15 صفحه اولSynapse Formation: Astrocytes Spout off
Trillions of synapses form as the brain develops. This intimate contact between two neurons has now been shown to be facilitated by thrombospondins - large extracellular matrix proteins secreted by astrocytes.
متن کاملAstrocytes regulate myelin clearance through recruitment of microglia during cuprizone-induced demyelination.
Recent evidence suggests that astrocytes play an important role in regulating de- and remyelination in multiple sclerosis. The role of astrocytes is controversial, and both beneficial as well as detrimental effects are being discussed. We performed loss-of-function studies based on astrocyte depletion in a cuprizone-induced rodent model of demyelination. This led to strong astrogliosis accompan...
